MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, February 25, 2019

QUESTION NO.

QUESTION: Councillor K. Mahon

"To ask the Chief Executive to comment on whether they would consider installing signs along the Whitestown stream, similar to those in local parks, highlighting the wildlife in and around it, its links to the river Dodder and the importance of protecting it from dumping and pollution?"

REPLY:

 Signs are not generally installed along rivers or streams as they can be vandalised and be a target for graffitti. However as the Whitestown stream flows through Sean Walsh Park, the park would be considered a more suitable location for an information sign. This will be considered as part of the Green flag application and the mangement plan for the park.
